Seems like perfectly congruous statements from what I can tell.
- PaulHoule 4y agoMy wife’s uncle brought much of his family from Italy over to the US but I sometimes see him watching Fox News on the horror of ‘chain migration’.

- hezralig 4y agoAre you implying that we reached our European immigrant quota or just the Italian quota?
- libraryatnight 4y agoIn high school, my girlfriend's dad was Mexican born to illegals in the US, and we found it bizarre that he was a huge Rush Limbaugh fan and Fox News fan and regularly ranted about the border. His parents were different than the drug dealers and criminals coming over "now" and they eventually did become citizens was the logic if you asked about his origins.
- naniwaduni 4y agoThis is much less bizarre when you realize that Mexicans are, you know, not a homogeneous bloc and have their own divisions that might simply not be visible to you.
- danielrpa 4y agoImagine creating a single stereotype for everybody in the US, calling us "Americans" and assuming we have a single set of values and opinions - now contrast it with the reality of our polarizing politics where people have wildly different points of view.
- simonh 4y agoI remember Big Orange railing against it. To change the subject, I wonder how Melanie's parents are getting on these days.
